This course is normally a great course

I’ve played this course many times over the years but this winter the course is in very poor condition. I was extremely disappointed and will not go back until warmer summer weather. The greens were TERRIBLE!!

Pace was as Amazing as this Course

Wonderful experience on a holiday weekend Sunday tee time! Greens fees includes hot dog and drink and a bucket of balls. They take the pace of play very seriously and we soooooo appreciate that! Such a great layout with staff that are eager to make your outing as enjoyable as possible. Will not get bored with the holes on this course. Even with 25 mph wind gusts we were able to enjoy the course! Excited to return!!

Great municipal course

Day after I played (my first time on it) the course hosted a pga qualifier tournament so course was tiptop shape. Challenging but fair for me from white tees as a 14 handicap. Driving range, practice green and chipping green to practice on. Beautiful surroundings with several creeks running through the track. I’d play it again for sure. Terrific value.
